Uddhav Thackeray’s convoy attacked with cow dung; over 20 held | India News – Times of India



NEW DELHI: A day after Raj Thackeray‘s convoy was attacked with betel nuts, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) workers hurled coconuts and cow dung at Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray’s convoy on Saturday.
The police informed that over 20 people have been arrested and the matter is under investigation.
Calling it a failure of the state government, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Anand Dubey said, “The way Uddhav Thackeray’s convoy was attacked in Thane…Uddhav Thackeray – who has Z category security – is the son of Balasaheb Thackeray and has been a CM of Maharashtra. This attack is a failure of the state government. The law and order situation has completely collapsed here and the home minister should resign.”
On Friday, Raj Thackeray, the estranged cousin of Uddhav Thackeray, was touring the central Maharashtra region.According to a police official, while his convoy was en route to a hotel, some Sena (UBT) supporters attempted to block the path and threw betel nuts.
The betel nuts struck another car, not Raj’s vehicle, the official clarified. The individuals responsible were detained, and a case was filed against them.
Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders have previously accused Raj of accepting a ‘supari’ or contract to undermine the influence of the Uddhav Thackeray-led faction.
